Contest: Win a Moto X Developer Edition (Verizon) From Droid Life!

Even though we probably have a Moto X or three lying around the house and could probably outfit a small army with them, there were two models we still had yet to get our hands on as of the beginning of this week – the Developer Editions. So the minute we heard that Motorola would be slashing $150 off of their prices on Cyber Monday, we knew that our credit cards would be salivating. Yes, we bought both the GSM and Verizon Developer Editions of the Moto X. But you know what? We really like to give sh*t away here at Droid Life. Rather than keep these hacker-friendly devices all to ourselves, we want you to put them to use. Tinker. Unlock. Root. Flash. Everything.

Today, we’ll run our first of two contests that will give you the opportunity to win one of these Moto X Developer Editions. Since we know how much you love Verizon, we are putting the CDMA variant up for grabs first in today’s contest. Either tomorrow or Monday, the GSM model will be up for grabs.

Will pay for my freaking groceries, at the store. With my phone. Cause it’s that cool.

First thing to do is the first thing you do on all Developer Edition/Nexus Phones, acquire root and unlock bootloader

First thing I would do with this thing is unlock the bootloader and install a nice ROM.

The first thing I would do is give it to my husband so he could get it set up for me.

Tyler 

If I won it would replace my dying iPhone 5

Ballisticn8

First thing I’d do would be to sell my Galaxy Note 3. While I love the device and its options I have come to find out I much prefer stock or as close to stock android as I can get. With an unlockable bootloader the Moto X would be perfect.

Soxton

First thing I would do is go for a run and traxk it via gps. Damn gps is busted on my aging Droid Bionic

Levi Wilcox

adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem get_unlock_data

Mr. Joshua

Retire my cracked-screen, loyal GNex

aero0311

The first thing I would do with the Moto X would be pair it with my G-Nex so it could make sweet, sweet Moto Nexus babies.
